Our specialty committees change every conference, ranging from the less-common UN organizations to recreations of historic alliances and cabinets.
We generally scrap procedure, and delegates represent world leaders rather than countries.
Read: lots of fun, especially for those looking for an alternative to the standard committee.
Crisis committees throw you headfirst into the turmoil in the Middle East or the ensuing hurricane in South America, which conveniently occur a few hours into debate.
Research is out of the question; you, along with your fellow delegates, must form an on-the-spot plan to mitigate damage, while your chairs thwart your every solution.
More involved than your average committee. Recommended for delegates with at least one conference of experience.
Expert committees feature higher-level debate and a smaller, close-knit committee.
Recommended for delegates with at least two conferences of experience.
